The captain boasted that he would run the blockade without difficulty. Ilcr cargo consisted of pig Iron, pig lead, quicksilver, rifles, spool cotton, pins, needles, thread, percussiou caps, mackerel, etc., etc. The owner of the ship and cargo, Mr. Lafilte, of Charleston, came k from St. John to Portland on the steamer H Kastcrn (Juee". yesterday. llusseU'a letter tn the Lomlon Times, about ^Llb?

The retreat ended in a cow? srdly ro '?a miserable causeless panic. Such scandalous conduct on the part of the soldiers 1 considered impossible. I have never, eveu among camp followers, seen the like. The North must put her best men in battle, or she will irtcvocably fail before the energy aud superior fighting power of her antagonist. " A peace meeting was held at Saybrook, Conn., on the ICth instant, which ended in a serious row, during which Judge t'oljcr, ol Hartford, was badly cut on tho cheek, and other parties ipjured.

He said, in effect, if the blockading force should allow any one vessel to enter a blockaded port by the payment of duties, the blockade from that moment is raised. A belligerent may seal up a port, but if ho lets one vessel in, his right is gone. It follows, therefore, that whets a Federal craiser willingly allows a ship to pass a blockaded port upotfpayment of cns< touts, the blockade will be at an end. A dispatch was received in Richmond on H instant, narrating the tollowing ci Kte|^^Mh)W: It stated that "a i'edr^^MMNnsirwl soldiers, bound ^RfflrTiPuiul, Mo., was fired into and sunk by the Tennc.ee troops, and that all on Foard were taken priaonera." The telegram adds: "Our move in Missouri is onward. The cry is. on to 8t. Louis!"

The Charleston Jfermry says: "A y?>uthfu military friend ealled in to see us Wedncwlay and reports everything progressing finely ai the works on our sea shore.
